Our Love Will Last Forever
Chapter One: Bring Me To Life
Gai remembered it like it was yesterday. Closing his mismatched ghoul and human eyes, he reminisced about the times he and Hide-kun had spent together. Love like their's was a privilege; it was pure and unconditional, the kind you found only once in a lifetime or in a movie. But it had all shattered right before his very eyes (the mismatched ghoul and human eyes because he's a half ghoul lol see what I did there?).
The moment that the enemy ghouls had thrust their kagune into Hide's frail body was the moment Gai lost everything. Or so he thought. In the end, he just wasn't strong enough to protect the one he loved most. So he did the only thing he could.
Gai scooped up Hide's petite body bleeding out with the hope of the future love they would have possessed. Gai's heart raced and thumped deep in his heavy chest as he numbly scurried towards the hospital. He couldn't feel his feet—he could only feel their love fleeting just beyond his grasp.
"Hang in there. Hide-kun," he whispered to the comatose child who was also his lover.
Once he arrived to the hospital, Dr. Doofinshmertz diagnosed him as a person in a coma. Gai was devastated. You could see the pain in his eyes. This was his demise.

Gai arrived at hospital room B407 just as the sun rose over Tokyo. He held a bouquet of lilies firmly in his grasp (just like he once held Hide's love). Gai sneaked into the room silently and a bittersweet smile graced his features as his eyes lay upon the seemingly sleeping boy. Good thing he wasn't dead and was in fact sleeping.
Gai admired his physique despite his condition, how jaw-line was prominent and hot. It brought him great dismay to see the boy drained of all the joy that once radiated from his features.
Gai knelt at his bedside and ever so gentle caressed his his fingers over Hide's velvety, alabaster cheek. "Now that I know what I'm without, you can't just leave me." Tears leaked from his eyelids and he shuddered, trying to maintain his status as cool seme. But it was too much and the tears overflowed. They were a river in which he only wanted Hide to swim in, if it would wake him.
His tears splashed and pooled on Hide's gentle cheek and his eyes fluttered open. "G-Gai-senpai?" he whimpered, reaching a hand out, but he was too weak and it fell onto his chest. But Gai caught it.
"I'm here, Hide. I'll always be here to wake you up inside and save you from the nothing you've become."
"I love you Gai-senpai." Hide whispered.
"I love you too Hide-kun." Gai smiled.
They walked out into the daylight of their love.
